Using Qualitation Research.The tools of the research are the fieldtrip using in-depth interviews and participating observation in the registered nurses’ working in the hospital in question.
From the research, it is found the followings:

Hence, ‘Sammādiṭṭhi’ is the start of the nurses’ working in helping patients to be out of sorrows leading to both the nurses themselves and others.
2) Regarding the conceptual ideas related to the nursing and the working of the registered nurses, it is found that the nurse occupation is sacrificing, and having a clear framework of providing services which is the aim to take care of the patients with care, giving honor and respect, and equally treat to everyone. Form the analysis of the lack of happiness among the nurses at Wihandaeng Hospital, it is found there was the hospital is in a shortage of nurses that the work overloaded due to shortage of nurse while the wage is too low. There are some discrimination of differences comparing to other professions, sometimes causing conflicts with colleagues, supervisors, the lack of motivation from supervisors and the administrative team, along with expectation from the patients and their relatives; Including demands and social expectation through the internet those become the factors of more accusations. These make the nurses to work more carefully and seriously, unnaturally causing the lack of happiness in working, and affecting daily-life living.
